Professional Photoshop 5th Edition

The latest (and sadly probably the last) edition of Dan Margulis' bible on color correction is now shipping.  I pre-ordered a copy from Amazon and paid full price ($59.95 US) but I hear you can obtain cheaper prices from Borders or directly from PeachPit Press.

I don't intend for this to be an advertisement for the book.  I am a big fan of Dan Margulis and his color correction knowledge is way above any other writers that I have found.  Curvemeister is also acknowledged in PP5 as a great tool for color correction (according to Dan's forum), but I haven't received my copy yet.

If you really want to dig to the roots of Photoshop channels and color correction, this book will be a frequent reference for years to come.  If you aren't into some serious study and hands-on self training, save your $60.  This is what Curvemeister is all about, ultimately.

Barry Pettinger:
Thanks for the heads up Mike. Do you know if there is very much new info in it?  I found it available at Chapters for $49.49 Canadian.

Why do you believe it will be the last? I hope you don't suspect it will be his last book. I, too, am a big fan of his.

Hi Ron,

Dan Margulis has said that this will be his last book.  I, as do you and many others, hope that this is not the case. - Mike

BBushe:
hi guys,

dropped by again. I'm sure Dan is too ornery to stop writing books. He just needs another colour revelation, as per LABspace. I think there may be a fair difference in 5th edition compared to 4th, considering his 'conversion' (evolution?) to LAB.

I guess the principles remain though.

cheers,

bb
